On Monday I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me, my
subscription copy of The Simple Things had arrived. I was delighted and sat down with my favourite
mug filled with warm tea.

The Simple Things didn’t disappoint. Issue one was full of inspiring features
about food, gardening, interiors and getting outside. A thoughtful structure of the magazine took you through three sections of a day, from dawn to dusk. Within each part there was plenty to read, surrounded by beautiful photography and page design. I especially enjoyed the feature on cheese, the range of book reviews, the simple recipes to try and the Miscellany section. I finished
reading my copy yesterday and I’m already looking forward to receiving issue
two!
